C#m    A   B   F#m
                  C#m    A   B   F#m           C#m    A       B    F#m 
Just a castaway,             on an island lost at sea, 
C#m         A      B   F#m       C#m    A             B    F#m 
another lonely day,     with no one here but me. 
C#m    A    B     F#m         C#m A               B    F#m 
More loneliness,        than any man could bear, 
C#m    A        B   F#m      C#m    A       B    F#m 
rescue me before          I fall   into despair. 

 A               D E7                        A              D E7          F#m  
 I'll send an SOS to the world,  I'll send an SOS to the world, 
                       D                     F#m                D 
I hope that someone gets my,    I hope that someone gets my, 
F#m             D 
I hope that someone gets my   
 C#m          A2                      C#m          A2 
message in a bottle,           message in a bottle. 
 C#m          A2                        C#m          A2       F#m 
message in a bottle,           message in a bottle. 
C#m    A     B      F#m               C#m         A       B    F#m 
A year has passed         since I wrote my note, 
C#m    A       B                      F#m                      C#m    A       B    F#m 
but I should have known this      right from the start. 
C#m    A      B           F#m           C#m      A     B    F#m 
          Only hope can keep me together, 
C#m       A              B     F#m     C#m        A                 B     F#m 
love can mend your life,     but   love can break your heart. 

Chorus 

C#m       A   B     F#m                  C#m              A       B    F#m 
Walked out this morning, don't believe what I saw, 
C#m    A   B        F#m               C#m                  A     B    F#m 
a hundred billion bottles, washed up on the shore. 
C#m    A     B    F#m                         C#m        A       B    F#m 
Seems I'm not alone at being alone, 
C#m    A   B         F#m               C#m          A            B    F#m 
a hundred billion castaways, looking for a home. 

Chorus

C#m    A         B   F#m      C#m     A         B    F#m 
Sending out an SOS,       Sending out an SOS.. 
repeat and fade
